Colour and proportion of grains measurement in through-body porcelain tiles by means of image processing

A common demand in the production of through-body porcelain tiles is the visual uniformity of the produced tiles. We assume that their visual appearance can be controlled by properly acting over the process control. This paper presents an image processing method for obtaining a feedback for it. The method estimates two important properties, which are colour and proportion of each kind of grains forming the tile. It consists of two steps: a colour segmentation by applying the clustering algorithm ‘Fuzzy C-Means’, and the centres refinement of the former segmentation, proposed by us. The centres refinement proposal is based on the colour information and the colour mixing process. The experimental results show that the measurements of the colour and the proportion of grains obtained with the centres refinement, are more accurate compared to the ones obtained with ‘Fuzzy C-Means’.

Diopside porcelain

The possibility of using diopside polymineral rocks as raw material for the production of low-temperature soft porcelain, which has some advantages over the existing industrial ceramic compositions, is investigated. The main advantage is the decrease in the maximum firing temperature to 1020–1100°C. The formation of crystalline phases in the ceramic is analyzed.Translated from Steklo i Keramika, No. 4, pp. 17–19, April, 1995.     

浅析传统陶瓷绘画艺术与现代陶瓷绘画艺术的结合

面对不断发展的陶瓷绘画艺术,以及各种绘画艺术思潮对传统陶瓷绘画艺术的冲击,新思维、新观念的不断涌现,如何做好传统陶瓷绘画艺术与现代绘画艺术的合理结合是我们做好陶瓷绘画传承与发展的关键所在。从景德镇陶瓷发展的历史经验来看,景德镇陶瓷文化之所以立于不败之地,经久不衰,就是因为前人勇于吸收,敢于继承,善于交融。
